UESDAY evening's Co
tillion arranged by The

was in many ways, the

joyable ever held here;

The opening number was the "Waltz
Dream", the dance ending in the "Paul
Jones" circle, with numerous changes,f ol
io wing which came an "All Nations" favor
march, duplicate flags of many kinds
being matched upon the floor in the se
lection of partners with appropriate
music in "Hands Across the Sea" ; the
scene being brilliant and picturesque.
Next in order was a steeplechase tan
dem race, given for the first time here,
and making a decided hit,' miniature
hurdles, part of them "brushed", dress
ing the floor prettily. Several sets were
taken out, the women driving four .men,
and the men four women, in each in
stance ; a mad race ending in steeds and
drivers meeting at the head of the hall
and dancing together to the music of the
"La Sorella" two-step. A favor figure
with dainty streamers for the women
and varicolored chrisanthemums for the
men, followed, ,to the music of the
"Goodbye John" two-step.
Next in order was a putting competi
tion, participants being taken out in sev
eral divisions, the men putting for part
ners with gaily colored balls, the "duf
fers" being obliged to dance with their
putters. A favor figure, one of the most
dressy of the evening, followed, the
women receiving quaint Swiss bonnets
which came the "Horribles Parade"
favor figure with rattle drum fans for
the women, and hideous masks for the
men; the music being the "Eternelle
Ivernesse" waltz.
The familiar pin wheel figure was en
joyed to music of the "Honey Hoy" two
step, after which came the "Waiting at
the Church" schottische and the "Puss
in the Corner" figure, the program end
ing with the "Don't You Want a Paper,
Dearie" two-step, a confetti battle and
the c'osing "Home Sweet Home" waltz.
The Tin Whistle masquerade decora
tions added much to the effect of the
scene, the favor booths in white with ivy
trimmings harmonizing effectively, Mrs
Hill being in charge of the committee on
decorations.

Middle Row De Rohan, Edson, Smith, Norris
Lower Row Finingan, Mac Bain, Gleason,
with streamers, and the men, garlanded
Harlequin caps; the music being "El
Capitan" two-step.
The third figure was the ballet which
made such a decided hit here last season,
three men arrayed in filmy ballet skirts,
worn over their Tuxedos, dancing before
a very critical young woman ; the most
graceful winning a dance, the remaining
two dancing together ; the figure being
repeated several times and ludicrous in
the extreme. Intermission was followed
by a favor figure with graceful floral
wands for the women, and goldheaded
ribbon bedecked canes for the men, a
march with many changes being enjoyed
to "I Got a Lemon in the Garden of
Love" tnusie.
The whip figure to the "Valse Bleu"
music, provided a merry frolic after
mixed Doubles Tennis.
Mr. F. C. Inman of Wilkesbarre, and
Miss Mary B. Adams of Boston, were the
winners of the mixed doubles event in
the annual gold medal Tennis Champion
ship, defeating Mr. G. F. Parrish and

WARREN K. WOOD WINS
Takes President's Trophy in Spring
Golf Tournament Finals.
Entry tut f One II unci red and
JFifty-eiflit Participant Ilreak
World' Record.
HERE is no doubt about
it, the fourth annual
spring golf tournament
rather went one better
any contest in the his
tory of the Village, and
with its monster field of one hundred
and fiftv-eight participants, it breaks
world's records !
u It's simply marvellous," said Oswald
Kirkby, winner of the consolation trophy
and the recent Club Championship, " for
the amateur championship seldom runs
over one hundred and forty, and your
first sixteen was about as fast going as
you will And anywhere with Warren
Wood and Fred Herreshoff as pace
makers. Pinehurst certainly beats the
world for golf ; there's no doubt about
that."
Honors of the week went to Warren
K, Wood, the young Chicago amateur,
who is one of the foremost of the
younger set upon which the eyes of the
golfing world are now centered, the
Homewood player landing the two most
cherished trophies; the qualification
gold medal and the President's or first
division cup. Next in line came Mr.
Kirkby of the Englewood club, who
took the consolation trophy, with John
E. Porter of the Allegheny Country
club, very much in the limelight. Mr.
Porter made a bid for recognition in the
semi-finals when he defeated Allan Lard
of the Columbia club, on the twentieth
green, in one of the most spectacular
matches ever played here.
Mr. Lard started out well gaining a
lead of two up on the third hole, Mr.
Porter reducing it to one at the fifth and
this lead the Columbia player main
tained until the fourteenth hole which
the Pittsburgher won on a screaming
putt. The fifteenth and sixteenth holes
were halved, Mr. Porter losing a half on
the short seventeenth, the ball hanging
on the lip of the cup and refusing to go
down even ; the climax coming on the
home green.
The Columbia player holed a long putt
for a five and with the Pittsburger on
the far edge of the green anything bet
ter than a win seemed out of the ques-
